Hi,

It may be due to hypotension, hypoglycemia or simple partial seizures or a migrainous headache or a transient ischemic attack or delirium. Avoid drugs that may induce it.

Please get it done
-MRI brain and MRI angiogram.
-Blood pressure, blood sugar levels.
-EEG, serum electrolytes, hemoglobin.
-Thyroid profile.

Please consult your neuro physician, he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
